Product Name
- COX Manual 2 Component Dispenser VBM 200 159272
Brief Description
- The COX Manual 2 Component Dispenser VBM 200 159272 is a robust, manually operated tool designed for the precise application of two-component adhesives and sealants from 400mL cartridges with a 1:1 mixing ratio.- It features an 18:1 mechanical advantage, making it suitable for efficiently dispensing medium to high viscosity materials.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Bonding various materials in assembly and repair tasks.- Sealing joints, gaps, and surfaces to prevent leaks or ingress.- Shimming applications for precise spacing and alignment.- Potting and encapsulating electronic components or sensitive parts.- General adhesive and sealant application in construction, automotive, and manufacturing processes.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense- Automotive Service/Repair- Construction/ Building Services- Energy (e.g., wind and solar sectors)- General Manufacturing- LED/Electronics- Marine- Transportation/ Specialty Vehicle (e.g., railways)
Special and Unique Features
- High-quality cast aluminum handle for durability and comfortable day-long use.- Epoxy coated steel frame provides robust support and extends tool life.- Support straps ensure a secure fit for cartridges during operation.- Sintered steel catch plate for reliable performance.- Integrated Wear Compensation Device (WCD) for long-lasting, worry-free performance.- 18:1 Mechanical Advantage Ratio facilitates efficient dispensing of viscous materials with less effort.
Key Properties
- Product Type: Manual 2-Component Dispenser- Cartridge Capacity: 400 mL (13.518 oz)- Cartridge Ratio: 1:1- Mechanical Advantage Ratio: 18:1- Viscosity Compatibility: Medium to High- Weight: 1.5 kg / 3.3 lbs- Handle Material: Epoxy Coated Aluminum- Frame Material: Epoxy Coated Steel- Tool Component Approvals: REACH
Surface Compatibility
- The dispenser itself does not have surface compatibility, but it is designed to dispense a wide range of two-component adhesive chemistries, including epoxy, polyurethane, silicone, and methacrylate.- These various adhesive types offer compatibility with diverse substrates such as metals, plastics, composites, wood, and concrete, depending on the specific adhesive formulation used.
Known backups / known substitutes
- Other COX manual 2-component dispensers, such as the VBM 100 (for 200mL cartridges) or VBM 200X (for 400mL with 25:1 ratio).- Manual 2-component dispensers from other manufacturers like Mixpac, 3M, Loctite, or Delo, which are compatible with similar cartridge systems.- For higher volume or reduced manual effort, pneumatic or battery-operated 2-component dispensers can serve as substitutes.
Comparison Note
- The COX Manual 2 Component Dispenser VBM 200 159272 is a manual tool, offering excellent control and portability for precise bead application, making it suitable for both professional and semi-professional tasks.- Unlike pneumatic or battery-powered dispensers, it does not require external power sources, providing flexibility in various work environments.- Its 18:1 mechanical advantage is well-suited for medium to high viscosity materials, distinguishing it from models with lower ratios for less viscous products or higher ratios (e.g., 25:1 in VBM 200X) for extremely high viscosity applications.
